Hi, I’m Sheree, the heart behind One Spirit Healing. I’m a certified Birth Doula, Placenta Encapsulation Specialist, and Reiki Master, offering grounded, compassionate support through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My work blends evidence-based care with intuitive presence, creating a calm, supportive space for each family I serve.

Hi, I'm Suzanne Nicklas! I'm a Registered Nurse, IBCLC, Doula and Health Coach based in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. As a nurse, my passion has been working with new parents and infants. I have worked with hundreds of families in my fifteen years as a lactation consultant and doula. I love educating families prior to the birth of their baby and particularly enjoy the postpartum period. As the mother of four, my own birth experiences led me to this work. My passion for wellness started many years ago when I took the first of many health coach trainings, the first being through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. I began health coaching in 2010 and since then my practice has transformed and grown in many ways. As I have grown as a person, so has my work. Along the way I have picked up skills based on my own personal interests and broadened my education and am able to share those with both my lactation and doula clients as well as my coaching clients. Some of these training include yoga, aromatherapy and reiki. It is my love of combining conventional and alternative philosophies of care that led me to Ayurveda and Yoga. My trainings have enabled me to blend the wisdom of Eastern medicine into our Western way of living to create lifestyle transformations that work in our busy day to day lives. All of my services are offered both virtually and in person. I particularly enjoy teaching Beach Yoga classes here in Coastal Southern Maine, which are offered in Old Orchard Beach from mid June - August. Lastly but most importantly, as a partner and mother of four amazing humans, I bring both personal experience and professional care to the families I serve. I am honored that you have chosen to visit my site and I look forward to working together.

I am a DONA trained birth and postpartum doula serving the greater Portland Maine region and beyond. I believe every birth and birthing parent is unique and deserves the support and encouragement of a doula that encourages their unique experiences. The birth and postpartum period can be full of a wide range of emotions and feelings and I truly honor and hold space during this sacred time. I offer on-call services from 38 weeks of gestation until birth with prenatal preparation appointments provided before this time. Continuous labor support is provided with emotional support, natural pain management techniques, encouragement as well as assistance in navigating communications with medical teams. I also provide postpartum support for families which includes care for both birth parent and infant, support with baby feeding, house hold duties, family support, emotional support and additional resource and references. Postpartum support really helps the new family transition into their new roles and life with compassionate support along the way.

I am a wife & mother living on the coast of Maine. I am passionate about all things nature, the cycle and seasons of life and photography. In late 2023 I became pregnant with my first child & son, and I have since dove head first into motherhood and childbirth. My pregnancy and home birth was a beautiful and easeful experience that changed me forever. As a trained & certified doula and photographer I hope to assist your growing family through emotional & physical support and capturing your life changing moments in a way that feels best for you.
